    Fuck, fuck… To be saved by your own child’s donated organ at the cost of their life. I can’t imagine the toll that would take her mind.

        That’d be such a bullshit monkey paw. There’s nothing perverse about wishing for your health. There’s no moral where you go “oh man, I guess I shouldn’t have cared about my health.” It’s just pure “well fuck you, monkey”

          In the original story, the protagonist wishes for $200k. Moments later, he gets a knock at the door from the life insurance company that insured his father for $200k.

          This follows a similar arc.

        I want to explicitly clarify that I do not support adventurism or fedposting type actions…

        BUT…

        If even some stochasticic terror stopped targeting schools and minorities and began taking out Saw mill or Healthcare execs? That would be an objective improvement.

    comrade-stoic Oh my God. The sheer level of cruelty of this world.

    Clearly he didn’t immediately die on the factory floor but instead reached a level of coma where he was then pronounced brain-dead. Can’t exactly donate the super critical stuff without that.

    To live every day knowing a part of your child is what’s keeping you alive has to be a hell of a feeling.

      Imagine reaping the bloody harvest of your own child’s organs.

      How could someone choose to just keep living their regular life after that? Just, go back to work after recovering from the organ transplant. Imagine sitting in traffic to go to stare at a screen and answer calls for 8 hours, knowing that the only reason you can keep living that kind of life is because your own child was chopped up and is keeping you alive.

        Likely he was working because his parent couldn’t.

            Funny you should say that, my friend is working on just such a book. It should go well since he seems quite trustworthy, so much so that I’ve disclosed my politics and sexual orientation to him.

      The funniest one of these “positive news” stories I’ve ever seen was when a local news channel spotlighted a farm that was taking retired racehorses to “save them from the slaughterhouse.” Which is all well and good but imagine seeing that as someone who didn’t already know they were being killed.

      I say funniest because at least they weren’t talking about people.

    I don’t like this framing. Organ donation is objectively good, and should be promoted. Worker exploitation is bad but your title implies that the organ donation is what’s bad here.
